Procédé de cintrage d'un tube métallique épais, et dispositif pour sa miseMethod of bending a thick metal tube, and device for its implementation

Elle s'étend en outre à un dispositif de mise en oeuvre de ce procédé.- It also extends to a device for implementing this method.
On a déjà proposé dans la demande de brevet FR-A-2 488 162 de la Demanderesse un procédé de ce genre, applicable de manière plus générale It has already been proposed in the patent application FR-A-2 488 162 of the Applicant a method of this kind, applicable more generally
à tout élément métallique allongé de section droite constante. to any elongated metallic element of constant cross section.
On a cependant constaté dans la mise en oeuvre d'un tel procédé pour des tubes épais qu'il apparaissait un gradient de température important entre la surface externe de la zone chauffée et sa surface interne. Dans le cas habituel o le collier chauffant est un élément inducteur engendrant des courants de Foucault dans le tube, seuls les 15 à 20 premiers mm de l'épaisseur du tube à partir de sa surface externe sont échauffés par les courants de Foucault, le reste de l'épaisseur n'étant échauffé que par conduction et restant donc à une température plus basse. Ce gradient de température important entraine un coefficient moyen de contrainte de plasticité relativement élevé. Si l'on veut éviter l'apparition de défauts sur la surface interne du tube, ceci impose donc une avance assez lente du tube à cintrer, et par suite une production horaire de tube 'cintré plus faible que ce que l'on peut atteindre avec des tubes suffisamment minces pour que la température de la zone chauffée reste sensiblement constante sur toute l'épaisseur du However, it has been found in the implementation of such a method for thick tubes that there appears to be a significant temperature gradient between the external surface of the heated zone and its internal surface. In the usual case where the heating collar is an inductive element generating eddy currents in the tube, only the first 15 to 20 mm of the thickness of the tube from its external surface are heated by the eddy currents, the rest the thickness being heated only by conduction and therefore remaining at a lower temperature. This high temperature gradient results in a relatively high average coefficient of plasticity stress. If one wants to avoid the appearance of defects on the inner surface of the tube, this therefore requires a relatively slow advance of the tube to be bent, and consequently a hourly production of tube bent lower than what can be achieved with tubes sufficiently thin so that the temperature of the heated zone remains substantially constant over the entire thickness of the

-2 - tube. Cette difficulté est particulièrement importante par exemple avec les tubes en acier faiblement allié à 2-2,5% en poids de chrome et 0, 9-1,2% en poids de molybdène de la nuance dite 10 CD 9.10 (désignation -2 - tube. This difficulty is particularly important, for example with the low-alloy steel tubes containing 2-2.5% by weight of chromium and 0.9-1.2% by weight of molybdenum of the so-called CD 9.10 grade (designation
DIN 10 Cr Mo 9.10).DIN 10 Cr Mo 9.10).
La présente invention a pour but de procurer un procédé et un dispositif de cintrage d'un tube métallique épais qui réduise à une valeur relativement faible le gradient de température entre les surfaces externe et interne de la zone chauffée ce qui assure une maltrise du bon comportement métallurgique du tube à cintrer, et diminue corrélativement le coefficient moyen de contrainte de plasticité de cette zone, et qui The object of the present invention is to provide a method and a device for bending a thick metal tube which reduces to a relatively small value the temperature gradient between the external and internal surfaces of the heated zone, which ensures good behavior control. of the tube to be bent, and correlatively decreases the average coefficient of plasticity stress of this zone, and

Hereinafter, by way of example and with reference to the figures of the accompanying drawings, a device for bending a metal tube is described below.

L'invention s'applique plus particulièrement aux tubes en acier faiblement allié à 2-2,5% en poids de chrome et 0,9-1,2% en poids de molybdène, notamment ceux répondant à la nuance dite 10 CD 9.10 (norme DIN 10 Cr Mo 9 10), dont le comportement métallurgique et le coefficient The invention is more particularly applicable to low-alloy steel tubes containing 2-2.5% by weight of chromium and 0.9-1.2% by weight of molybdenum, in particular those corresponding to the so-called 10 CD 9.10 grade ( DIN 10 Cr Mo 9 10), whose metallurgical behavior and the coefficient

Le tube épais à cintrer 1 subit une poussée longitudinale exercée par le sabot 2. A son autre extrémité, un bras 3 pivotant autour d'un -3- axe 4 et enserrant le tube dans un mors 5 assure le cintrage du tube, porté localement à une température élevée par un collier inducteur 6. Un diabolo 7 guide extérieurement le tube en amont et à proximité de la zone The thick tube to be bent 1 undergoes a longitudinal thrust exerted by the shoe 2. At its other end, an arm 3 pivoting about an axis 4 and enclosing the tube in a jaw 5 ensures the bending of the tube, worn locally. at a high temperature by an inductor collar 6. A diabolo 7 guides the tube externally upstream and close to the zone
chauffée par le collier chauffant.heated by the heating collar.
A l'intérieur du tube, un chariot 8 est maintenu par une tige 9 reliée à un point fixe 10 à une distance constante de ce de ce point fixe. Ce chariot est muni de galets de guidage 11, 12, 13. Il est relié à ce chariot du o8té opposé à la tige un anneau-support 14 muni sur son pourtour d'une couche 15 de calorifuge tel que la laine de roche. La Inside the tube, a carriage 8 is held by a rod 9 connected to a fixed point 10 at a constant distance from this fixed point. This carriage is provided with guide rollers 11, 12, 13. It is connected to this carriage 8 opposite the rod a support ring 14 provided on its periphery with a layer 15 of heat insulation such as rockwool. The

trie de la zone chauffée (ou du calorifuge) doit être maintenue constante. L'anneau-support 14 est formé par exemple de quatre secteurs de the heated area (or insulation) must be kept constant. The support ring 14 is formed for example of four sectors of
se raccordant les uns aux autres grâce à des tôles de recouvrement. connecting to each other by means of cover plates.
Sur ses joues 17, 18 solidarisées par une entretoise 19, sont fixées des flasques 20, 21 supportant les galets 11, 12. Une équerre 22 porte une tige 23 de support d'un flasque 24 portant le galet 13. Le flasque 24 On its cheeks 17, 18 secured by a spacer 19, are fixed flanges 20, 21 supporting the rollers 11, 12. A bracket 22 carries a rod 23 for supporting a flange 24 carrying the roller 13. The flange 24
est repoussé par un ressort hélicoïdal 25 vers la paroi interne du tube. is pushed by a helical spring 25 towards the inner wall of the tube.
La zone chauffée à une température telle que la contrainte de plasticité soit dépassée se trouvant un peu en aval du collier chauffant dans le sens d'avance du tube, le calorifuge 15 diminue le gradient de The zone heated to a temperature such that the plasticity stress is exceeded being located a little downstream of the heating collar in the direction of advance of the tube, the heat insulation 15 decreases the gradient of

cient moyen de contrainte de plasticité du tube supérieur à celui qui serait obtenu en l'absence de calorifuge. Il permet donc d'augmenter la vitesse d'avance du tube et la production horaire de tube cintré, et corrélativement permet d'augmenter la capacité en diamètre et épaisseur This means of plasticity constraint of the tube greater than that which would be obtained in the absence of heat insulation. It thus makes it possible to increase the advance speed of the tube and the hourly production of bent tube, and correspondingly makes it possible to increase the capacity in diameter and thickness.
